Periodontal Treatment

Caring for your gums is as important as your teeth

Dr. Ang believes strongly in the connection of mouth and body when it comes to your health. That’s why he spends quality time ensuring that your mouth is free from gum disease.

Startling as it seems, over 75% of Americans suffer from some stage of gum disease! Many don’t even realize they suffer from poor gum health until they begin to see its effects on their teeth.

And what’s also important to realize is that no amount of restorative or cosmetic work can be a success if the gums are unhealthy.

Signs & symptoms of gum disease

Could you be suffering from gum disease? Here’s a list that might indicate you are suffering from some form of periodontitis:

Gums that bleed during and after tooth brushing

Red, swollen, or tender gums

Persistent bad breath or bad taste in the mouth

Receding gums

Formation of deep pockets between teeth and gums

Loose or shifting teeth

Changes in the way teeth fit together upon biting down, or in the fit of partial dentures.

Ultrasonic scaler

Our hygienists use an ultrasonic scaler to painlessly blast the tartar off your teeth and remove stains.

Prevent rather than treat

Gum disease can lead to a whole host of problems, that’s why Dr. Ang makes the gums his top priority with new patients. A clean, healthy cushion for your teeth is the only way to make certain that problems won’t occur and reoccur.
